How this blog is organised

The point of this blog has been already explained in the Blog description. I will not cover that section again, I will instead, explain how this blog and labels are going to be organised.


Firstly, there is classification based on major research areas that i would be covering

  1. (A) Population ecology covers the bio-chemical-physical way of looking at the population.
    * Understanding interactions within the population, i.e., if we only look at population vs time graph
    * Understanding interactions of the population with its environment, i.e., if we look at chemical, physical and other population changes in the surroundings of population of our interest.

  2. (B) Time series analysis covers statistical techniques - with one independent component, i.e., time or space.
    This section would cover discovering patterns in the time series, including periodicity and then moving to prediction. Hows "Patterns, Periodicity and Prediction in Phytoplankton Population Ecology" for a review article?

  3. (C) The area where both the above come together; and is applied in decision making. Therefore, this covers the Actual Models being used by the water management people.

Secondly, there is classification based on the blog post made.


The definition section includes all quotes, excerpts and definitions. The rest of the diagram is self explanatory.


Final point in this post is about labels -

Labels: Each blog entry will therefore have labels based on the above categorisation. If it is a definition, the keyword would also be a label.
